Discussion
High pressure will sit on top of the Mid-Atlantic region today and provide us with spectacular weather considering the time of year with comfortable conditions and plenty of sunshine. This high pressure system will shift to our south and east on Thursday and this will open the door for hot air to return to the area from the Midwest at the end of the work week. A weakening cold front will approach later Friday and it could generate some shower and thunderstorm activity in the Mid-Atlantic region on Friday night. Hot weather will continue this weekend in the DC metro region with high temperatures way up in the 90’s as the dissipating frontal system will not be able to provide us with any relief.
